How to deploy

The network server can be deployed in a number of ways. Choose between the public community network, SaaS, on-premises, private cloud, embedded and offline deployments. From single-tenant to multi-tenant, multi-region, auto-scaling deployments.

Public Community Network

Use the decentralized and collaborative network, counting thousands of gateways around the world, used by tens of thousands of developers and businesses to build value-driving use cases. Use the gateways that are already installed, or add additional gateways where additional coverage is needed.

Software as a Service

Take control over your LoRaWAN deployment by running a private LoRaWAN network and opt-in for peering with the Public Community Network. SaaS deployments by The Things Industries are offered with a Service Level Agreement and guaranteed uptime.

Private Cloud

Deploy the LoRaWAN Network Server in your own trusted domain to take full control over your deployment, quality of service and the level of security. With this on-premises deployment you can make sure the data never leaves your domain.
